Bone Regrowth Guide for Lower Jaw Implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two types of membranes used to grow bone in the lower jaw before placing dental implants. Participation lasts about one year and involves a bone-regrowth procedure to prepare for implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to have missing back teeth on your lower jaw that need extra bone before you can get dental implants.
- You must have enough healthy bone height to place the implant.
- You should not have any health problems that could interfere with bone healing.
- You must be able to commit to at least 1 year of follow-up after the procedure.
- You should not be a heavy smoker (2 or more packs per day) or have poor oral hygiene.

This trial tests two ways to rebuild the jawbone so there's enough space for a tooth implant. One method uses a mix of man-made bone and donated bone, the other uses man-made bone and your own bone chips. It might help you if you need more bone for an implant in your upper jaw.
This study compares two types of bone graft materials used to rebuild the jawbone before placing a dental implant. It aims to see which works better for people with a thin jawbone, helping to support a new tooth.
This trial is testing a custom-made titanium mesh (built with a 3D printer) to help regrow bone in your jaw where teeth are missing. It may be an option if you have moderate to severe bone loss and need a strong foundation for dental implants.
This trial compares two ways of placing a dental implant along with a bone-grafting procedure to rebuild bone around the implant. It aims to see which method gives better results for people who need a single implant and have a small bone defect on the cheek side.
This study tests a surgical method to widen a narrow lower jawbone so dental implants can be placed. It may help people who have lost teeth and need more bone support.
This study compares two types of collagen membranes used in guided bone regeneration to rebuild jawbone so dental implants can be placed. If you need a bone graft for missing back teeth and are generally healthy, this trial may be a good fit.
